As if I ever

was before I

took a look at

all the signs

They're rolling

C G

over in my mind

The feelings I

could not release

became a bitter

G Bm

part of me What

was I thinking of?

I couldn't stand

the way it was

[Chorus 1]

Looked at my

reflection

and I saw a

stranger's face

I saw where

D/F#

I was going

and I had to

C A E A E A E A E

walk away

[Verse 2]

I lost a girl it's

just as well She

tried to save me

from myself I

still got her

on my mind

Tossing and

turning in my

G D

bed But if she

had stayed another

week I would have

dragged her down

with me She took

off cause she had

enough Is that what

I thought love was?

[Chorus 2]

I told her See

you later but

it's hard to

see at all At

the bottom

of the barrell

with your back

[Chorus 3]

I looked up one

day and saw that

it was up to me

You can only be

Admit defeat

And I looked up one

it was up to me

You can only be

a victim if you
